2004-2005 AI Sires
Visir #01-892 Homozygous white horned ram.  Particularly short legs, which is an indicator of heavy muscling.  Visir's shoulders, back, rump, and thighs are his strong points, each rating a '9' (leg score is an '18'.)  Coarse horns with a quick curl.  Loin eye muscle measured a superb 40mm, with a shape of 4. Somewhat short bodied.  Passes great meat qualities on to his offspring, but they easily could get too fat.Visir's overall evaluation score was 85.5, which is above the average for an AI sire.  Southram  says of him..."In 2003 his progenies came out better in lamb evaluations than any other AI sire's progenies have done before, showing superb conformation."

Kunningi #02-903 Homozygous white ram, well horned.  A very large ram at 211+ lbs.  Superb leg muscling (score of 18.5) with very strong scoring in his chest, back, and rump.  (9.0 each)  Short legs,
(113mm canon bone-which indicates thick muscling.)
38mm loin eyemuscle thickness, which is outstanding.
9mm of backfat, which is a little much.  Nevertheless, Kunningi is a superb ram with an overall evaluation score of 86 out of 100.  Southram said..."His progenies
have great conformation and superb gigots."

Hylur # 01-883  Homozygous white, horned ram.  A grandson of the famous Laekur, one of the 10 all-time best AI sires ever in Iceland.  This superb ram is especially distinguished by his low amount of backfat,
(3mm) and his ultra-high wool score, (9.0). Long-bodied and moderately tall. Overall, he scored 85.5 out of 100, which is well above the average score for AI sires. We
traveled to the farm of Hylur's birth  (Hestur Experimental Station) during our vaginal AI training.
where we saw some of the most beautiful Icelandics in
existence!!

Kari  #03-908  Homozygous white ram that carries spotting.  He is best known for his superb horning, and his incredible wool score, a fantastic 9.5!!
His conformation is very good overall, with good muscling in his chest, back and rump. He was born in 2003, so figures aren't definitive yet for the motherliness of his daughters, or his offspring's carcass scores.  With an overall score of 83.5, and
an overall good conformation, his genetics are likely to be a useful addition to anyone's flock... and
he's mostly unrelated to any other AI sire!

Lodi #00-871  Homozygous white, horned ram.  A very good, long bodied ram with a very low amount of backfat and superb fat index score.  (VERY lean.)  Like Hylur, he comes from the Hestur Experimental Station which almost ignores horning and wool quality, concentrating on developing superb conformations with heavy & thick muscling and low amount of backfat.  (4mm in Lodi's case.)  Lodi has excellent loin eye muscling (37mm) with perfect eyemuscle shape (5), which earns him the superb back score of 9.5 out of 10! Wool is a little coarse. He has excellent leg muscling, and overall score of 85 out of 100.
Southram says "His progenies proved to have great meat
qualities with the highest gigot muscling score in the test."
